Chapter 215 The Necromancer Who Attacks Actively (One More Update!)
Chapter 215 The Necromancer Who Attacks Actively (One more update!)
The mercenaries used shields to form a defensive line at the entrance of the town, struggling to resist the impact of the undead creatures.
Even though the mercenaries have killed a large number of undead creatures, the number of undead creatures is still increasing.
"Wait, what's that in the sky?"
A mercenary who was recovering his strength in the back row pointed to a group of black shadows appearing in the cloudy sky.
Using shields in the front row to defend against the attacks of undead creatures is a very energy-consuming thing, especially for the heavy impact of zombies.
If it's a skirmish, they can also dodge.
But sometimes, there is always a situation where you can no longer go back.
"Be careful, it's an air strike!"
The person in charge of the small mercenary camp took a look and reacted quickly.
He has experienced wars between the kingdom and the enemy country. Although his strength is mediocre, he was lucky to save his life from that war called a meat grinder.
Under the vigilant eyes of the mercenaries, the black shadow in the sky suddenly rushed down!
"Ah!! My face!!"
A mercenary painfully tore at the monster that fell on his face, and his entire head was wrapped by this kite-like monster.
The severe pain aroused the ferocity of the mercenary, he gritted his teeth and used all his strength to tear the monster off his face!
"Tear..."
Because of the forced tearing, the mercenary's face showed a bloody scene!
The monster struggled in the hands of the mercenary, its strength was not too great, just like ordinary people.
But it is very flexible and can easily avoid the defense of the mercenaries, and then attack the mercenaries.
"Pfft!"
The mercenary pierced the monster's skin-like body with the long sword in his hand. Immediately, after a sound like the leather was pierced, the monster that was struggling so violently became completely silent.
"Hoo hoo..."
The mercenary was panting with difficulty, he felt his face was hot, and the blood was dripping continuously...

Yi Qiu and the others took advantage of the time when the mercenaries were attracting the attention of the undead creatures, and killed them from the alley next to them.
Once inside the town, the vision got even worse.
Moreover, under the blasphemous power of the cloud, if the will is not strong enough, it is easy to fall into a state of panic.
But with paladins around, this level of environmental disturbance wouldn't have much impact.
At level 3, a paladin can acquire the ability of the aura of courage, which not only makes the paladin completely immune to fear, but also allows nearby companions to obtain a higher will check effect when resisting fear.
The alley that Yi Qiu and others cut in is close to the tall city wall surrounding the town, with only a row of houses between them.
Because of the erosive effect of negative energy, many buildings appear crumbling.
But they can maintain this delicate balance for a long time without external interference.
As the crowd got deeper and deeper, the alley began to narrow.
The paladin Ilya was the first to walk forward. The fighting sounds of the undead creatures and mercenaries could no longer be heard. It seemed that the only sound left in the town was their footsteps.
"Da da……"
"Da da……"
"Da da... da da..."
At this moment, the paladin Ilya suddenly stopped.
There were 5 of them in total, but he seemed to hear the footsteps of 6 just now!
"What's wrong?"
The soldier Isaac put himself into a combat stance in an instant, and asked while looking around vigilantly.
"Detect Evil!"
Ilya looked around for a week and didn't find anything wrong, but he was sure he heard right.
As a necromancer, Ilya didn't think he would have the illusion spell attainment that could make a paladin hallucinate.
So he made a prayer, and an invisible wave spread from his body.
Detect evil!
As if sensing something, the paladin suddenly swung his long sword at Lear's shadow!
"Puff!"
It looked like the paladin's long sword hit the ground, but it made a sound like sulfuric acid corroding objects!
Obviously, some kind of powerful positive energy effect is attached to the long sword of the paladin, which can cause a lot of damage to undead creatures.
Without hesitation, the paladin swung his second sword again!
This attack completely eliminated the monster hidden in Lear's shadow. After a puff of black smoke, the paladin put away his long sword.
"Bound spirit or ghost?"
The paladin frowned, compared to zombies or skeletons.
On the racial level, ghosts and wraiths are higher.
The difficulty of its summoning will naturally increase a lot.
With the enchanted long sword rewarded by outstanding graduating paladins in the same period, paladins can destroy skeletons and zombies with just one swing.
But for ghosts and bound spirits, he had to add another sword.
If the monsters guarding around the necromancer are all ghosts and bound spirits, then it is obviously a very tricky thing.

As Yi Qiu and others continued to go deeper, they encountered more and more monsters.
Most of the time, they were zombies, skeletons and other monsters. They were active in their houses before they were alive. When they felt the breath of living people, they rushed up like mad dogs, and then turned into wreckage under the attack of everyone.
But when they were about to pass through the alley and walk to the entrance of the town's market, all these monsters disappeared.
This small town has been responsible for the circulation of goods between many small towns before the market in the small mercenary camp valley appeared.
But when the necromancer captured the town, due to some hidden worries, no town took over the job. Instead, it is agreed to conduct centralized transactions in the valley where the small mercenary camp is located at a fixed time every month.
Yi Qiu looked around while following the team, the decaying houses were empty inside, as if this piece of land was abandoned by a small town.
But it is obviously unreasonable to be close to the entrance of the market in the town.
At this moment, the paladin who walked out of the alley first stopped. In front of him, a group of zombies were watching them quietly.
And in the sky, densely packed monsters that look like kites are floating above.
Among the zombies, a pale-skinned man was standing there, holding a staff in the shape of a skull in his hand.
There is no doubt that this is the goal of Yi Qiu and others: Necromancer!
"You look surprised?"
To everyone's surprise, the necromancer did not rush to expel its army of undead to attack Yi Qiu and the others, but spoke slowly in his hoarse voice eroded by negative energy.
"Do you think I should hide in a corner and tremble? Or lie in a secret place and spy on you?"
"Maybe some idiot would do that, but I won't."
"This is my homeland, why do you think I would bow to you invaders who brutally murdered my people?"
The necromancer raised his skeleton staff:
"Save some flesh and blood for that bald head and female mage, I will use their corpses to create new companions..."
Suddenly, the monster that was motionless suddenly rushed towards the crowd!
